When asked her views on living so close to the tram stop, Basford resident, Katherine Wilkinson, 52, said: "It doesn't really bother us. The only time it bothers me is when it's in the morning and they come down here early in the morning like six o'clock or when they beep, that's the only time it bothers us."
A 34 year old who did not wish to be named described the tram stop as being "convenient." She said: "I use it almost every day. It's not very noisy, you can't really hear it as it's quite quiet."
She added that she uses the tram "everyday." Care worker, William Vitkovitch, 41, has lived close to the tram stop for more than 10 years.
He said: "I used it quite a lot, but I've got a car now so I don't use it as much. But it is really handy to get straight into town and back.
"Shipstone Street is the way back from town and then down the road is the tram towards town, so it is very helpful. Especially when I'm not driving and the weather is too bad to cycle and things."
When asked about the noise from the trams, he said: " I've gotten used to it. I've been here for 10 years so I do hear it, but it's just the same as a car going past down the road."
Retired, James Halpin, 74, said: "It doesn't annoy me, I've gotten used to it." When asked how often he uses the tram, he said: "Yeah, I use it now and again as it's convenient."
Fundraiser consultant, Rachel Crookston described the close proximity of the tram stop as being "really handy." She said: "It's great, I use it a couple of times a week maybe."
